“A huge thanks to #Isles and the hockey community for supporting #JT91. Best of luck to Giroux and Rinne in the #NHL13Cover final,” said the NY Islanders official Twitter page.

The Islanders' campaign during the semifinal round of voting consisted of campaigns such as “North America vs. the World” as they preached voters to vote for Giroux and Tavares.

While it may be a surprise to some, this shows how popular of a player John Tavares is around the world. Social media marketing campaigns over websites such as Twitter and Facebook also show you how well liked the young center is.

Islanders players such as Michael Grabner, Matt Moulson, Matt Martin and Dylan Reese showed their support for Tavares on Twitter throughout the campaign.
